McDonald's armed robber leaves behind clown mask, leading to ex-employee

[Indy Anna]

Police took Juan Rivera, 20, into custody late Wednesday night.

[...]

Witnesses told police that they believed the suspect may have been a former employee who showed them a clown mask last year. They also provided police with a photo of the employee wearing the mask.

I'm glad nobody was hurt during the robbery.
Wasn't sure whether to post this here, on the crime forum, or on the clown thread. :clown:

Rivera reportedly told investigators that he committed the robbery because he didn't have enough money to pay his rent.

So, why didn't he get a job working as a clown? :thinking:
Come to think of it, why was he no longer an employee at McDonald's if he needed money to pay the rent? Because he didn't want to work? :gaah:

Indy Anna Thx for opening this thread.

No day brightener like a stooopid criminal story.
Glad LE did not have to spend a lot of time & $ to solve, like they would for a who-dun-it-robbery.

Even if the perp does not learn something positive from it, maybe some of his chums will. Well, maybe one.
